Tested with Ubuntu 11.10 x64 (like the orginial report) in a virtual machine. Since Firefox now uses PDF.js by default, the Adobe plug-in was activated by opening about:config and setting pdfjs.disabled=true.

Unfortunately the bug still exists.

The strings found in the plug-in are still there, and the file "C:\nppdf32Log\debuglog.txt" is still created when the plug-in loads.

$ strings /opt/Adobe/Reader9/Browser/intellinux/nppdf.so | grep -i debug
UnixDebugWriteToFile
C:\nppdf32Log\debuglog.txt
